In other news, Brit luckbox, Vince Eley (AlbusFawkes here) went along to Aspers Stratford to play the Friday night £60 £10k Gtd NLHE starting at 7pm.

Arriving around 6pm, he sat down at a newly opened £1/£1 cash table with £150.

After a couple of orbits, the hijack raises to £5. Cutoff, button & small blind all flat. Vince looks down at
  and pumps it up to £31. Hijack & cutoff both call, button & SB fold.
Flop 

Lovely, Vince again bets £31. Hijack shoves for around £160, Cutoff also shoves for £120.I have around £120 behind and call.

I am expecting to be facing an up & down and either flopped straight or smaller set.

I now have a favourite dealer at Aspers!

As for the tourney, at 3am I busted 18/178 for £120 - long night but a great evening overall,

Good to see you exhausting your luck before the Raise for Jack event

From pokernews.  Pete Linton is in 2nd, with 2 shorties 3rd and 4th (now on 2m ish each).

Pot-Limit Omaha

Luc Greenwood raised to 500,000 from the cutoff and Peter Linton defended his big blind with a call.

They checked to the {q-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Spades}{5-Hearts} turn where Linton announced a pot-sized bet of 1.12 million. Greenwood wanted to call and he added one chip to his pile, thinking he would slide forward 1.1 million.

However, when he did so, he realized his mistake as he pushed forward 2.1 million and, unfortunately for him, it was declared a raise.

Linton moved all in for 4.66 million and Greenwood couldn't fold at that point.

Linton: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Greenwood: {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Linton's two pair held after the {q-Spades} river and the mistake cost Greenwood heaps of chips, allowing Linton to double into the lead.

"Oh my god," Greenwood lamented. "Oh, f***."

"Sorry, bro," Linton said.

"No, it's fine. It was my mistake. Sealed my own fate," Greenwood replied.

Peter Linton   gb         10,440,000   5,160,000
Lucas Greenwood   ca         5,280,000   -5,020,000

Benny Glaser was the unlucky bubble boy. All-in in BB for 2k with blinds @ 1k/2.5k he managed a triple up. Folded his next blinds and on the second orbit he was all-in again on BB and this time succumbed.
